She reached a career-high of No. 39 on 8 March 2021. After that, her season was plagued by injuries, including one in April that forced her to retire from her quarterfinal in Istanbul, and then one (foot) before Roland Garros. She still managed to deliver, despite the loss, a great fight against Jennifer Brady (13th at the time) in the second round though (4-6, 6-2, 5-7). After a winningless grass-court season, Ferro came back on clay and reached the quarterfinals in Lausanne, beaten by Clara Burel. Beaten in the second round of the Olympic Games in Tokyo by Sara Sorribes Tormo, Ferro came close to upset Iga Świątek in the second round of the US Open: she was up 6-3, 2-0 but lost 6-3, 6-7, 0-6.
